NEW: SoX Resampling
JRi:
Does the change take place instantly or restart/next track has to be played?
Hendrik:
Playback has to be stopped for the change to take affect.

--- Quote from: kbkaran on April 28, 2017, 02:59:18 am ---I am completely taken by the upsampling in MC22. I have never like upsampling in previous versions but in a speaker setup. But the current MC22+ifi Nano iDSD is very addictive. Interestingly, I do not like the SoX option. I also do not like the upconversion to DSD or 2xDSD. With the native upsampling, I feel I am getting a more punchy and clear sound. Another parameter of fidelity in my books, is recreating the recoding venue ambience and with 44.1K upsample to 352KHz I feel the soundstage is pretty three - dimensional with good depth. This is very very good.

kbkaran I'd be interested to know more as to why you prefer the standard resampling vs SoX. I too have a similar setup and do not usually resample but I find it handy for background listening while working and using the iNano. Crossfading and Volume leveling work great no matter what file format is being used when shuffling tunes... This is not my main rig and haven't' done much A/B comparisons (Wouldn't be able to tell the difference anyway on this system....Vintage Akai amp with Old Bose 601's so...It sounds nice but Imaging/Soundstage is very poor...Mostly due to the speakers...) I'll play some more with this though using headphones when time allows...Or on my main rig...
